Wendy Martin is in trouble. She owes money to the wrong person and her life, as well as her family’s, are at stake. With a mysterious lead, she goes searching for the fabled Eloria’s Tear, a priceless religious artifact said to contain the power of a saint long dead. On her way she meets Zander, a creepy guy who keeps himself hidden, but offers to help for a price. Wendy finds that Zander is more than he appears, a chimera who is no longer completely human who needs the Tear to regain his humanity. They’ll have to work together to not only find the Tear, but also to keep it and stay alive.

Eloria’s Tear: good stuff. I enjoyed how flawed Wendy was. She was short sighted, forgot basic things and was terribly impulsive. Those things drove the story. It got a bit long at times, but even in those slower points I enjoyed watching Zander and Wendy get closer. There was danger and the fight scenes were intense with a mix of physical and magic-type violence which I found very engaging. Elloria’s Tear is a story that anyone looking for a bit of fantasy will really enjoy.
